The return of the white coat?

Do scientific stereotypes vary around the world? Or is the "boffin" image the same everywhere?

Damn, that's crap.

Who are your new employers? Did I miss some big news on my hols?
Bollocks. I was so excited about showing off my lipid-based prowess I failed to notice that Chall was talking about Dick.

What a pity.

Are you sure there is no way around it?

That's no good (Tiddles and the Visa). Sorry, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

As for little me - I won't be going to Europe this fall either... got prolonged for work but haven't got time/money/visa to go back and forth within 5 months..... (so, happy news turn into one little less happy news...)

Me thinks we need that grant thingy. If we plan it good, maybe a spring holiday for the sniffing contest? Or you guys solve halft of it at the blogconference? Just Tiddles and I who need to work something out (or you can all visit us in the States! There will be BBQ and beer! ;) )

Did someone say beer?

I developed a liking for Samuel Adams in NY.


Nice to see you again Prof. Good holiday?

Oh, go on. It's been a long day, and we could all use the cheap laugh at MDE's expense.
